As seen in the 06 January issue of Science:

The Department of Microbiology and Immunology at Dartmouth Medical School seeks to recruit an outstanding candidate who studies aspects of bacterial or fungal pathogenesis or other microbe-host interactions that occur in the context of the lung, the gut, or other mucosal sites. Dartmouth has a highly interactive and stimulating research environment. Thus, individuals with cross-disciplinary interests who combine the study of host-associated microbes or microbial communities with state-of-the-art genetics (e.g. ncRNA), genomics, biochemistry, imaging, and/or bioinformatics are of particular interest. There are also opportunities for interactions with the clinical departments at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center. The successful applicant will hold a PhD, MD, or MD/PhD degree, and the intent is to recruit a tenure track faculty member at the Assistant or Associate level, however candidates at all ranks are welcome to apply and would be considered for an appointment at a rank commensurate with experience. We seek individuals who will develop or expand upon a robust, independent, extramurally funded research program, and a demonstrated ability to attract external funding is desirable. Recruited faculty will interact closely with members of the Molecular Pathogenesis Program (www.m2p2.org), and the position includes membership in the Molecular and Cellular Biology graduate program (www.dartmouth.edu/~mcb). For further information on the Department of Microbiology and Immunology, see dms.dartmouth.edu/microbio/.

Applications should consist of a curriculum vitae and a brief statement of research interests and future plans, and the candidate should have three letters of reference sent on their behalf. Direct applications to: Karen Thompson at MIsearch@dartmouth.edu, Department of Microbiology and Immunology, Dartmouth Medical School, Vail Building HB7550, Hanover, NH 03755. For informal inquiries, contact Deborah Hogan, dhogan@dartmouth.edu, or Bruce Stanton, bruce.a.stanton@dartmouth.edu. Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled.
